Anxious

Location

Sick with worry

Literally sick

Calm my mind with nostalgia 

That'll do the trick 

Close my eyes just to recall 

Rewired in an unfortunate way 

Through the ground I fall 

Wide awake and anxious I lay   

 

A wave in the ocean  

Foreseen events in my mind  

A cupcakes topping

 If it were only so kind  

Knots in my stomach  

Thought after thought 

Understanding some lack 

Not yet been shot  

 

When it occurs in you 

You will fret  

No calm thoughts 

Only regrets  

Try not to worry  

But it only causes more 

Dark places your mind will flurry  

A drop in the ocean I'm sure
